Sovereign Hill Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Ballarat
We were lucky and didn't have much of a crowd when we went. Got to explore it a lot easier. Although the buildings were made in the 1970s, they are all well looked after. The staff dressed up in that era and responded like they were still in the era made the experience realistic. The history that this place carries during and of innovation. Story of The gold they found back in days.
Going through the time and space to the Sovereign Hill Gold Mine, it is time to go back to the Melbourne Lake when you go back to Melbourne. You can play it in 2-3 hours. There are Chinese tour guides who have arranged the play sequence very well. Watch the molten gold show, go down to the bottom of the mine to visit, and then go to the gold, and how much to take away, the story can be seen from beginning to end, and the progress is great, with three-legged cats English with foreigners
Explore the gold rush town
Ballarat is a famous gold rush town in history. Sovereign Hill in the town is a super large outdoor 'museum', which truly restores the historical appearance of the town during the gold rush period, as if traveling through time and space, and the photos are also very retro. 👍You can take a peek at the 'gold rush scene', encounter stylish carriages, and even experience panning for gold in the river yourself!

Despite it’s pricy ticket, this tourist attraction is quite worth the cost due to the fact that you could spend a whole day there. A musuem presenting the story of Ballarat, a goldrush boomtown, it has costumed characters that interact with crowds, horse coach rides and even underground mines.

came to Melbourne, in addition to the mountains and seas and the European old city, Australians love the little animals, they know the warmth of nature, full of heart, peace of mind.
In Ballarat, I met a group of little things. The kangaroo here is never afraid of being born. They skipped all the way, and brown eyes looked at me. If the kangaroo is a sister, then the koala is a sorghum.
Let everyone in the crowd hold a long gun and a short gun, they still sit on the tree, do not move, squatting from the calm. Of course, there is also the world's smallest mini blue penguin, very rare.
Tips: Ballarat is a gold-rushing town a hundred years ago. You need to be a train to get there. It costs about 70 yuan. After entering the park, remember to buy biscuits in advance. The kangaroo will smell when it smells, and the photo will be more suitable. Opening hours: 9 am to 4 pm.
Ballarat Wildlife Park was established in 1985 and has a history of 32 years. The ticket is 35 Australian dollars. It is located quite close to Melbourne city. During the visit, I saw many local teachers bring students for an educational field trip. There are large crocodiles, kangaroos, alpacas, koalas, Tasmanian devils, wombats, Dingoes, little penguins and so many other animals.
If you like, you can feed the alpacas and kangaroos or play with them. I enjoyed playing with them. They are all scattered around the big lawn where you can interact with them. You can even take close up pictures of a Koala. The price to take a picture is 18 dollars. When my friend went to take pictures, the staff first gave her eucalyptus leaves so that the koalas would become animated. She was then able to take the pictures she wanted and got some great pictures.
A gift shop is attached to the exit of the zoo. There are various dolls and refrigerator stickers, essential oils, etc. You should visit the shop and pick up a few things.
Up close encounters with free roaming kangaroos
Spent a couple of hours at the Ballarat Wildlife Park and the plus point is that there is so much area for the kids to run around freely. The kangaroos are free roaming aplenty and there s so many of them just lazing around and enjoying the sun. the downside is that they are seem to be well fed (prob by all the visitors) and they are not really interested in the feeds. Other animals in the park like koalas penguins and a caged sumatra tiger also made the children very happy.
